Douglas Preston Quote
There was a pause while Pendergast considered this. I prefer hypocrisy to poverty. Come to think of it, there is a rationale. Leng didn’t make his money from killing. He made it from speculating in railroads, oil, and precious metals. Pendergast raised his eyebrows. I did not know that. There is much you still don’t know about him.
